Requiem for the Silent, Part II

By Kiota - Posted on March 12th, 2008

It isn’t me, someone else is suffering. I couldn’t.
Not like this. Everything that has happened,
cover it with a black cloth,
then let the torches be removed…
Night. -- Anna Akhmatova, “Requiem” (translated by Sasha Mayakovsky)
